Warid has signed an agreement with A.F. Ferguson & Co.(a member firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers) to implement an automated budget control solution.
This solution will bring efficiency & accuracy in budget control processes, synchronize the expenditure approval proposals with ERP, provide real time visibility to budget stakeholders as well as deliver automated reports.
Speaking on the agreement Mr. Tariq Gulzar, Chief Financial Officer Warid Telecom, said:
Budget control automation is part of our technology road map to improve the speed of business and further strengthen the internal control environment. I am looking forward to the timely implementation of the solution which will greatly help introduce ERP based controls on expenditure approvals and executions.
Mr. Irfan Faruqui, Partner, who leads the Technology Practice in PwC said:
This project will help Warid to streamline and automate its budgetary control in line with the best practices and we are excited to have the opportunity to assist Warid Telecom with this essential initiative.
This guy Tariq Gulzar really needs to know that he is not a marketing guy. Warid has its own sales & marketing deptt! Why on earth is he is in most of promotional activities of Warid when he is the “CFO”
S, this is not a promotional activity instead press release pertains to a pure financial matter. Further this is factually incorrect to say that CFO is in ‘MOST’ of promotional activities, though he do participate in some events just like other key management personnel.
Warid PR may further clarify.
